Hello, I was wondering what type of flower this is? It was on the side of the westfield river. Thank you!
Answer
Dear RockyRoad43, you have photographed Lobelia cardinalis (red lobelia, also known as cardinal flower). This species is most frequent on shorelines, and also occurs in open wetlands (e.g., marshes). Best wishes.
